" Here's the thing though - outside of this forum, who's even going to know? "" Dan "Come on" That all depends on you, me and everyone else on this forum that agrees that this practice is unethical. Peach Tree or Ron Brown are not the only ones that excess to Face Book and other forms of social media. Send an email to all of the members of your wood turning/wood working clubs, let them know! Besides that there is always the good ole fashion WORD OF MOUTH! That still is one of the best ways to spread the word. Again like someone mentioned this a small niche of a market. You take away even a small portion of their customers it will hurt them, may not put them out of business, but will hurt. Then maybe the next guy will think twice. So if we do sit back on our butt's and do nothing, we are basically condoning the practice. Then we have no business complaining. Let's just shut up! Don't want to go into politics but, if you need an example look at what this country has come to. While the vast majority sits in their peach's & cream world. The special interest groups have chipped away at everything we once held dear.
There are levels of upset about something.
One is it changes your attitude as buying habits. The other is that it sends you on the warpath.
For me it's prob mostly the first as well as informing someone considering buying such an item in the history of the situation.
I don't intend to go on the warpath and I doubt many here who are upset will either.
That's not to say someone shouldn't...
